Thanks for giving me an opportunity to share something that “will be for life” and that I anticipate will bring years of pleasure.

Why did I do it? Well, I need tattooing practice, for one thing. And it WAS a lot of fun to do! Did some 3 color shading, and will be eager to see how it turns out. It’s my original work. I’m proud of it.

The main impulse to put SYNCHRONIUM.NET in my leg was the realization I could be an Active Supporter of the John — and by extension this website — in a way few others would consider. I’m here to say that I do indeed support the site and that the gain is worth the pain, in terms of the payback aspect. The more people that visit the site, the happier I am!

SORRY about accidently removing that video (above) from YouTube so it won’t show up here now… but you know how things go sometimes when it’s early in the morning?

The tattoo is healing up well. Showed it to one of the staff and one of the inmates at work last night. So “the word” (and the URL, hopefully) will get out to around 600 people at work by noon today — the Grapevine being what it is.

Part of getting this tattoo was the desire to sort of thumb my nose at authority, which in my case, amounts to The State Of Texas, which is my employer. I think being a Role Model to the inmates as someone who shows responsibility on the job is more important than what I do OFF the clock.

People that have tattoos like to talk to each other about them. People that DON’T have tattoos like to ask questions of people who do… and who usually don’t mind their asking. So, if you already have a tattoo yourself you already know what we say — “When it comes to choice of tattoos, there’s no accounting for tastes”.

The new tattoo is pretty well scabbed off around the lettering mostly, and some off the lettering as well. Hoping I can get a good shot of it in a week or two, when the color blending will begin show up better — it’s currently rather subtle in places.

I really enjoyed putting this tattoo on myself. It’s the first one I’ve done on myself below the knees. Now I need to either add something on top of it — it kinda looks like an explosion? — or, something in the same place on the oppisite ankle.

SO — email me or visit my website, and submit your artwork… whatever you got. I might gopher it! What I’m considering now is kind of a Evil PacMan graphic game illustration… sounds scary, huh? Skulls are good… whacked out punk, maybe, but remember I’m not an ARTIST as such — keep it simple!
